Schematic side view when Fig. 2 E is the chain flexes in Fig. 2A.Please refer to Fig. 2 E, outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 220 It with chain roller 230 can be pivotal axis and be pivoted relative to each other, so that the first major axis A 21 of connected outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 220 and the Angle theta 2 is formed between two major axis As 22.When the chain 200 of part section is straightened, the first major axis A 21 being straightened in section with Angle theta 2 between second major axis A 22 is maximum value, is 180 degree.When outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 220 are pivoted relative to each other, so that When the partial sector bending of chain 200, the angle theta 2 in this curved section can be less than 180 degree, as shown in Figure 2 E.
Fig. 2 F is the schematic top plan view of the chain in Fig. 2 E.Fig. 2 E and Fig. 2 F are please referred to, in the outer chain sheet 210 being connected with each other In inner chain sheet 220, the convex top surface 211b of the first of outer pivot end 211 can be set to the second middle part 222 the second convex top surface It contacts and overlaps at 223a, and form overlapping area L1, hatched example areas as shown in Figure 2 E.The area of overlapping area L1 can be with The diminution of angle theta 2 and reduce.When the chain 200 of part section is straightened, angle theta 2 is maximum value 180 degree, at this point, first is convex The overlapping area L1 between the first of portion 223 the convex convex top surface 223a of top surface 211b and second has maximum area (such as Fig. 2 E out In be located at leftmost overlapping area L1), also make between the first convex convex top surface 223a of top surface 211b and second accessible each other Area is also the largest, and will form a clearance G 1 between opposite outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 220.In this way, inner chain sheet 220 The second convex top surface 223a be easy to overlap in the first of outer chain sheet 210 the convex top surface 211b, so as to be straightened, (angle theta 2 is equal to 180 degree) 200 section of chain there is lower amount of deflection and be not easy curved along the direction of chain roller 230 and the two long axis of roller 290 It is bent.
Fig. 2 F is please referred to again, when outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 220 are pivoted relative to each other, so that the partial sector of chain 200 is bent When, angle theta 2 can change with the pivot amplitude between outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 220, and wherein 200 bending amplitude of chain is got over Greatly, the angle of angle theta 2 is smaller, so that the area of overlapping area L1 reduces with the diminution of angle theta 2.Therefore, the first convex top Area L1 accessible each other can also reduce with the diminution of angle theta 2 between the convex top surface 223a of face 211b and second.Work as chain When 200 bending amplitudes are excessive, the first convex top surface 211b can not be overlapped in the second convex top surface 223a, so that overlapping area L1 disappears It loses, the first convex top surface 211b is not contacted each other with the second convex top surface 223a.Due to the first convex convex top surface top surface 211b and second The area being in contact with each other between 223a reduces with the diminution of angle theta 2, in addition disappear, therefore facing outer chain sheet 210 with Biggish clearance G 1 can be formed between inner chain sheet 220, so that being bent 200 section of chain of (angle theta 2 is less than 180 degree) has Higher amount of deflection and be bent readily along the direction of both chain roller 230 and rollers 290 long axis.
It follows that 200 section of chain being straightened has lower amount of deflection when chain 200 is straightened.When chain 200 When bending, by curved 200 section of chain amount of deflection with higher.Therefore, the fluted disc (example of bicycle is engaged in chain 200 Rear flywheel 120 and preceding fluted disc 130 as shown in Figure 1) after, chain 200 can generate different amounts of deflection in different sections.In detail and Speech, chain 200 be engaged in the section of fluted disc because of bending amount of deflection with higher, and chain 200 is not engaged in the freedom of fluted disc Section is more straight and has lower amount of deflection.In this way, the chain 200 in free section is not easy the shaft along fluted disc And the refining item 200 for deviating, and being engaged on fluted disc can then be corresponded to because of amount of deflection with higher front and back fluted disc between it is lateral It is displaced and is bent, to reduce the risk that chain 200 is detached from front and back fluted disc.
The effect of second protrusion 224 is essentially the same as the effect of the first protrusion 223, i.e. the second protrusion 224 It can promote 200 section of the chain amount of deflection with higher for being bent (angle theta 2 is less than 180 degree), the and (angle theta 2 etc. that is straightened In 180 degree) 200 section of chain there is lower amount of deflection, wherein the second protrusion 224 is allowed to reach the mechanism of above-mentioned effect and the One protrusion 223 is substantially identical, so being not repeated to describe.Further, it is necessary to which explanation, real shown in Fig. 2 D to Fig. 2 F It applies in example, inner chain sheet 220 is provided with the second protrusion 224, but in other embodiments, and at least a piece of inner chain sheet 220 can not be set The second protrusion 224 is set, so the second protrusion 224 shown in Fig. 2 D to Fig. 2 F only supplies for example, not limiting each interior chain Piece 220 has to the second protrusion 224 of setting.
In addition, the first protrusion 223 and the second protrusion 224 shown in Fig. 2 D are only referred to for citing, it is not for limiting Make the shape of both the first protrusion 223 and the second protrusion 224.In other words, in other embodiments, the first protrusion 223 also can have other different shapes from 224 the two of the second protrusion.For example, the shape of the second protrusion 224 can be Semi-cylindrical or corner post shape, and the shape of the first protrusion 223 can be rectangular cylindrical or triangle column.
Fig. 3 is the schematic side view of the chain of the bicycle of another embodiment of the present invention.Referring to Fig. 3, the present embodiment Chain 300 is similar to the chain 200 of previous embodiment.For example, chain 200 and 300 also includes the same or similar element, it is such as outer Chain piece 210 and chain roller 230.Moreover, both chains 200 and 300 effect is identical.Therefore, the identical spy of the two of chain 200 and 300 Sign is not repeated to describe in principle with effect, and the difference between following main narration chain 200 and 300.
Inner chain sheet 320 included by chain 300 is different from inner chain sheet 220.Specifically, inner chain sheet 320 has in second Between portion 322 and the first protrusion 323 set on the second middle part 322, wherein the first protrusion 323 include two convex block B1. These convex blocks B1 with a piece of inner chain sheet 320 (is not painted) with pivoted hole in these due to being covered by outer chain sheet 210 and chain roller 230 It is all arranged along the second major axis A 32, wherein each convex block B1 has the second convex top surface (not indicating), and the shape of the second convex top surface Convex block B1 as shown in Figure 3.
When outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 320 are pivoted relative to each other, folder will form between the first major axis A 21 and the second major axis A 32 Angle θ 3.Folder when the chain 300 of part section is straightened, between the first major axis A 21 and the second major axis A 32 being straightened in section Angle θ 3 is maximum value 180 degree.When the bending of the partial sector of chain 200, angle theta 3 can becoming larger with 200 bending amplitude of chain And increase.In the outer chain sheet 210 and inner chain sheet 320 being connected with each other, the convex top surface (not indicating) of the first of outer pivot end 211 can be connect The convex block B1 set on the second middle part 322 is touched and is overlapped in, to form overlapping area L2, hatched example areas as shown in Figure 3, The area of middle overlapping area L2 can also reduce with the diminution of angle theta 3.It follows that it is identical as previous embodiment, utilize weight The repeatedly variation between region L2 and angle theta 3, chain 300 also can generate different amounts of deflection in its different section.In this way, working as chain 300 when being engaged in the fluted disc of bicycle, and the chain 300 in free section is not easy the shaft along fluted disc and deviates, from And reduce the risk that chain 300 is detached from fluted disc.
The above is only the embodiment of the present invention, is not intended to limit the present invention in any form, although originally Invention is disclosed above with embodiment, and however, it is not intended to limit the invention, any person skilled in the art, is not taking off From within the scope of technical solution of the present invention, when the method and technique content using the disclosure above makes a little change or is modified to The equivalent embodiment of equivalent variations, but anything that does not depart from the technical scheme of the invention content, it is right according to the technical essence of the invention Any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made by above embodiments, all of which are still within the scope of the technical scheme of the invention.
